Amy- What is C25K?

[Ms Perception]

On Amy's behalf...C25K is Couch-to-5K. It's a beginner running program that gets you from basically nothing to running 3 miles in 9 weeks. I've done it, as have several other ladies on here. We're all pretty big fans of it!

[Tummy Girl]

LOL, I started the thread and forgot to put my goals down. So this month I'm going to complete P90X Doubles, Training Block 2 and continue running three times a week with my 20K training program.

That's some great goals ladies and Amy welcome aboard!

Since I went WAY overboard with my goal last month and had to revise it, I'm definitely going to be more realistic this month. So my goals are:

Exercise 1620 minutes total for monthand Start C25K. I did this last month but didn't stay consistent so this month I'm going for it again. Amy I'll help hold you accountable if you'll do the same for me! I could definitely use it!

I can't wait for October! Let's do it!

HelpMeLose~ I don't want to break any link rules, but you can find the c25k program by googling "Cool Running Couch-to-5k."

BigSexy ~ Sounds like a plan! 5K, here we come!

As I've just joined a gorgeous new gym that opens tomorrow I'm very motivated for this. Here's my goal:

Minimum of 4x a week for 1000 minutes
I'll be trying out new classes that will be gentle on my bad knee and hitting the cardio wave machine.

I can't wait!

hey girls this is my first fitness challenge too!! My goal is to run 6x a week for 30 mins, and 3 days of strenght training using weights. I have been jogging since july, but recently joined a group that goes 3 days a week it is very motivating and inspiring. good luck girls!!

[shasha17a]

My October goal is to exercise atleast 1 hour a day 5x week. Of these 5 days, I hope to complete 4 M-F.

[helpmelose]

Thanks ladies for replying. I am going to look into that. I was actually planning on doing a 5k this saturday but with being sick with the flu last week and still coughing I don't think it will be a good idea. But there is another one in November that I want to do and that would obviously help get me ready for that as I have not done any running recently. So maybe that will be added in this month!

[HeyHeyGabby]

Starting out slow with my first real exercise goal:

3 CD's of walking on my treadmill a week!

By that i mean ill pick some of my favorite CD's, one for each of the three days ill be walking a week. I'll end up walking to 12 different CD's. If I'm going to be motivated to exercise, I can't think of a better thing to incorporate then music .

Hey girls!

My October Exercise Goals:

720 mins (Start small, then build up....)
100 PushUp Challenge
200 SitUp Challenge

[gardenerjoy]

Hey everyone! Great goals!

September was my first exercise challenge, 1200 minutes, and I met it. Having the goal was very motivating to me, so, thanks!

For October, my goal is 1300 minutes of exercise.

[simplymybest]

Okay...I'm new to this, but think the exercise challenge is an excellent motivational tool...so I have been walking two miles a day for the past three weeks...

My October goals are: 1. Walk 3 miles x 3 days per week
2. Indoor exercise x 2 days per week

I certainly need the accountability...thanks everyone!!!
